Dear Koreanists,

A colleague of mine in the U.K. who has been pursuing the learning of 
the Korean language via the Internet (and who has made some rather 
amazing progress) has asked me to find out what I can about the 
following quote.

 > It occurs to me you might be able to put me on the track of whatever
 > historical anecdote or folk tale lies behind the saying "애초에 송충인
 > 솔잎을 먹었어야했어", which, as tends to happen with such things, I've
 > heard in at least four different dramas over the past couple of weeks.

Any help will me much appreciated.

Chuck
